    Very frustrating - Blu Ray region issues


    Okay I'm getting zero search results as to a fix for this and I don't want to wait for an hour trying to reach "costumer service" -

    I bought my X1 in Washington State on the day of release, set it all up properly, and I can't play 9 out of 10 of any Blu Ray discs and NONE of my 100+ DVDs work. All are from Region A/1 and I still get "THIS DISC WILL NOT PLAY DUE TO THE REGION CODE SETTING
    OF THE PLAYER"

    I've uninstalled the Blu Ray app and reinstalled several times. I'm getting beyond pissed I just spent over $100 on new movies and only one works.

    Please can I get a straight answer on how to fix this?

    Thanks!

    :)

    Xbox One: Blu-ray and DVD movies

    I would check out the Xbox page for Blu-ray playback regarding regions. But yes, your Xbox One can certainly play DVD and Blu-ray movies.

    Very frustrating - Blu Ray region issues

    On DVDs it reads "Sorry, we can't play this disc. The disc is made for region 1 and this console is designed for region 4. (0x91d70005)"

    Wtf.

    It sounds to me like an issue with your console. I'd probably contact support for an exchange. I don't think the region can be changed by end users. Sounds like either the factory somehow screwed up and put the wrong region on your box (or your box in the
    wrong -USA- packaging) or something is just broken with it.

    This really is a horridly stupid issue to face with today's tech. It is estimated that over 95%of bluray players for sale in the states are region free. Microsoft boasts that the Xbox One is the all in one entertainment device for the home, but it limits
    what movies will play in their disc drive while other companies don't. Pathetic. Please address this issue. It isn't even a hard issue to fix. The firmware is easy to update and secure for these disc drives.

    Xbox One not recognising any DVDs at all

    I am very sorry for the frustration.

    You dont have any issues playing games though, correct?

    Are your movies regular DVDs or are they Blu-Ray?

    Canadian xbox one in England

    Also, if purchased in Canada, you would only be able to to play region A or region free Blu-rays.

    The UK region is B for Blu-rays, however lots of sites do sell region free Blu-rays in the UK.
